    The document outlines a decade of action from 2011 to 2020 to address the growing problem of road traffic fatalities around the world. The goal is to halt or reverse the increasing trend in road traffic deaths. Specific objectives include strengthening global coordination, increasing funding for road safety, improving data quality, and supporting national efforts through 5 pillars - road safety management, infrastructure, safe vehicles, road user behavior, and post-crash care. Progress will be monitored and milestones established to work towards reducing road fatalities by 2020. Additional funding is still needed to implement activities at both the global and national levels during the decade of action.
